<h1>West Bengal Cuts GST Rates on Handicrafts to Support Artisans; Tax Rates Now 1.5% to 6% on Select Items.</h1> The Government of West Bengal, following the recommendations of the GST Council's 28th meeting, has issued a notification to prescribe concessional West Bengal Goods and Services Tax (WBGST) rates on specified handicraft items. The notification exempts intra-state supplies of these goods from state tax beyond specified rates. Handicraft goods are defined as items predominantly made by hand with visual appeal and distinctive features. The notification lists various handicraft items, including handcrafted candles, handbags, carved wood products, handmade carpets, and more, with tax rates ranging from 1.5% to 6%. This measure aims to support the handicraft sector by reducing tax burdens.
